Look how small

Friendly and clean. Portion sizes were ridiculous. Got an antipasto salad and med pop for almost 19$ amd it was the size of a side salad and mainly lettuce. Never again.

Grilled chicken Caesar's Wrap and Small O-rings
Leang E.

Such an unsuspecting spot. The place is relative open where the tables are not crowded, but I opted to sit outside at the picnic table. The staff is friendly and helpful with suggestions as I often debate over a special vs something always on the menu. Either way I had it in my head that I wanted a wrap and decided on the grilled chicken Caesar wrap with the recommended onion rings. Everything was so good, especially those onion rings with the sauce. Might be one of the best onion rings. The breading was crispy and flavorful. Unbelievable that it's a gluten free spot. I will definitely stop in again.

Got here at 10 minutes before close and was informed that they wouldn't take my order. This was extremely disappointing as I live a half hour away, so I won't be venturing back again.

Chicken Sandwich and small onion ring
OHara B.

Celiac Foodie: Wow! Great restaurant! Owner is Celiac and has created a great 'safe' dining experience for Celiacs! I ordered the Chicken Sandwich, breaded and so crispy! Seasoned perfect and crunchy! Speaking of crunchy- ONION RINGS are so delicious, perfect amount of coating with a Spicy Dipping Sauce. I haven't had Onion Rings in years and these are very good. Also tried the Mac and cheese with Pulled BBQ Pork on top- so good, just enough cheese and so creamy. Must try! The noodles are cooked perfectly and tasted really good. Run here- gotta try it! New business, hours fluctuate slightly due to staffing so check that out before you stop in the evening. Seating is Cafe Style. Food is bagged to go. Paper plates, condiments and silverware provided if you want to dine in. No illness after consuming food. Happy Dining!

Mozzarella Sticks

How awesome to have a sport that offers exclusively gluten free food!! My mom has celiacs so she was so excited to try this place and that she could eat anything on the menu that she wanted! When you walk in, you order at the counter and then get your fountain drink, before seating yourself in the seating area to the left. There were both tables and booths available. I liked that there was lots of space for my toddler to comfortably run around while we waited for our food. I would consider this a family friendly restaurant due to the crayons & coloring pages available, space for all the kids to run around in the dining area, changing table available in the bathroom, and 2 high chairs available as well. Food is brought to your table in a brown paper bag, and you can grab paper plates and silverware from the counter if you desire. There were also picnic tables available outside. Only downside is the dining area was fairly warm with no airflow, but other than that, we had a great experience!

This place is a gluten free human's dream. I highly respect the owner for being involved in his business, proving great info and chatting with his customers. The crispy chicken bbq sandwich was the bomb dot com. And the mac and cheese topped with bread crumbs and pulled pork was also a favorite. I crave it allll the time and unfortunately I'm not local so can't eat it daily I am a fried food snob and although I appreciate pickles and moz sticks that are GF, they weren't my favorite. That being said, I'd probably still order the pickles again just so I can have some friend pickles again in this lifetime. Love this business, food and the way the owner is involved! Awesome and willll most certainly return

Mac & cheese and fries
Kristie N.

We went here because everything is GF, I'm not but my nephew is. The employees were amazing and friendly. The Mac & cheese was the best thing I tried and definitely worth it (couldn't even tell it was GF). I tried a few things and I'd eat it all again. Definitely a cool little spot. Would definitely go back again!

Breaded chicken sandwich, bull rider burger, fries and onion rings
Rivka H.

As someone with severe gluten intolerance it is always a treat to be able to order anything I want off the menu. It is a nice casual atmosphere with lots of yummy options. The greeter made sure to ask about any other allergies or food needs when I ordered. This was my second time here. The onion rings are delicious, and I got the homemade ranch dip. I also ordered the breaded chicken sandwich. It was good, but next time I will definitely ask for them to add lettuce. From my previous trip, the poutine is great. The fish sandwich was just okay. My teenage son loved his burger and fries and said they didn't even taste gluten free. It is on the pricey side, but worth it to have a treat and not worry about getting sick. Bonus mention for the clean all-gender bathroom.

Yummy! Picture-perfect gluten-free vegan burger "mission impossible" and bacon-bursting "bull rider" burger!
Lauren L.

Oh my GLUTEN-FREE-GOODNESS! I absolutely love when I find a hole-in-the-wall place that also is so conscientious of those with food allergies. When I say that this place takes it seriously - I mean it! The eatery is designed as an à la carte ordering experience and take-out, but the staff will happily cater to you eating in at one of the cute picnic tables. The way they package the finished food is similar to In-and-Out Burgers! It's a delight for the eyes! The burgers are SOOOO juicy and scrumptious. The gluten-free bread is UNREAL and the texture is just like having gluten buns! The fries which complement the burgers are slightly sweet, spiced and umami. The tastes are delicious and remind you of a summer family picnic, without any allergies- I absolutely love it. They also sell locally-sourced gluten-free sweet desserts! I love to see local businesses supporting each other. I saw a few brands- Kind Crumbs, Bliss Bakery to name a few. Wonderful choices and delicious ways to to finish the meal, too! Will definitely return with my hubbu, who is also gluten-free.

The lines have been super long but Nate stopped by one evening to grab us a three tender meal. I can't speak to the drive through experience as I wasn't there, but it seems pretty efficient and they have a couple lanes. The three tender combo is about $10 and the tenders were quite small. They were pretty crispy, especially for coming from a drive through 20 minutes away, so I was happy about that (previous tenders I've had from Raising Cane's were soggy). The fries were still warm and seasoned well, and I personally enjoy crinkle fries. The Sprite was crisp and they use that good pebble ice. I personally don't care for Texas toast, so I wish they had an option for more fries instead of toast. Overall it's a decent chain but not something I really need to go out of my way for.

Now, you know me folks, I always try and stay as sweet as peaches and pie but the sins committed at this location are UNFORGIVABLE. You have better odds of winning the lottery than having these FOOLS get your order correct. I've dined here many times as it's close to my mother's house, God rest her soul, and every single time without fail the staff here seem determined to take as LONG as possible to make your order as incorrect as possible. I really do apologize for losing my cool but a woman can only take so much... I ALWAYS be sure to have understanding for places that are low staffed or are busy during rush times but I am confident that is nearly never a factor for my experiences. Allow me to put it this way, when you see an empty parking lot, and a kitchen overflowing with employees (who seem to think talking with their friends is included in their job duties) and your order still takes longer than Easter Mass (not to mention completely wrong, LOL.!) there's not much else to blame... The people here are absolutely ridiculous and I will no longer be bringing my church group here.

As the menu didn't show the prices for fries separately, I was surprised that they cost more than three dollars. And I was even more surprised to see how few fries were in the small bag. I know that everything is more expensive than ever, but I still have vivid memories of a small order of fries costing one tenth the price I paid recently. We got our food quickly and it was fresh but I'm pretty disappointed with the value for what I paid. Maybe we caught them on a bad day.

I went up to the counter and showed the manager, I didn't see his name, on shift at 6:30pm on 10/29/25. He didn't even apologize when asking if I wanted a refund. I wasn't thinking clearly, due to a personal reaction I had to seeing the mold on the taco, when asking for an additional taco because I was still hungry. He wasn't friendly during this, and once I got my refund, he still never apologized. When I went back I finally lost my appetite and wasn't sure what I was thinking asking for a new taco. When trying to eat a taco with no tomato, the taco shell was very stale. I just gave up. When he came back with the additional taco I said thank you very much he was silent. Sadly, this wasn't our first rough interaction with this location and this manager. A few months ago, we were in the drive thru, and he was again very rude when I didn't understand him telling me there was no more mango refresca left and I panicked bc of his attitude. I can't remember at the moment what it was, but there was also missing food and the food we got was cold. My girlfriend left a review about this issue and the manager got back to her right away to explain that he was having a bad day and that's why he was rude and why we had to drive thru again to get our missing food. We gave him the benefit of the doubt and accepted a $30 giftcard to take down the bad review. I'm sad because this Taco Bell is the closest to me, and now I have to make an effort to definitely avoid it, now.

I definitely went for a cheeseburger with grilled onions and jalapeños, lettuce, pickles, and mayonnaise with a small fry and a peanut butter chocolate milkshake. It's been so long since I had a milk shake and this one hit so many spots!! Took me all the way back to Johnny Rockets! There were SO MANY FRIES!

Everything was seriously tasty, the service was great, the people awesome, and atmosphere was well just fine. I wish I never went because now I have to go back. I've been thinking about that burger all day. As far as fast food goes, this is the standard. Periodt!
